Ranjeet?Reveals Madhuri Dixit Cried And Refused To Do Molestation Scene In Prem Pratigyaa
Ranjeet recalled, "She (Madhuri) started crying and refused to do the scene. I was unaware of the situation... some art director had told me. There was a Bengali art director. Our director was Bapu, he was from South. I used to have fun on the sets, like when I would tell my co-stars, 'darling thoda udhar muh karo mai change kar leta hu (face the other side, I'll change)'. I was not even used to going to the makeup room. Very normal and all that. I was accepted like that; otherwise, they would say I'm fake."

He added, "Then, what happened, there was a handcart. Madhuri's father in the movie was poor and used to pull a handcart. The molestation scene was on the handcart. I was waiting for her but nobody told me what was happening. Ultimately, she agreed. Veeru Devgan was the fight master. He said that we will keep rolling the camera: 'beech mein camera cut nahi hona chahiye (the scene shouldn't be cut in between)'...Molestation is a part of our job. The villain is not bad. With every heroine, it was compulsory."
